Excerpt from The Emperor Francis Joseph and His Times The great and powerful State whose citizens we once were has ceased to exist. With it vanished the venerable House which had reigned over it for six and a half centuries. Memories alone are left to us. They rise from the grave like those of our dead, and first among them the memory of him who from his post of supreme authority gave the vanished epoch its particular character for two generations - Francis Joseph I., Emperor of Austria and Apostolic King of Hungary. Now is the time, among the unceasing difficulties and the endless trials of our daily life, that he seems to draw nearer to us, perhaps because Death, which reveals all things, is lifting the veil from him too, or because he comes before us as one of the most tragic figures of the old Austria.

Description: Baron Albert Margutti is Captain of the Austro-Hungarian Army. In 1900 he becomes Adjutant to Francis Joseph, Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary. From now on Baron Albert Margutti is a close associate of Francis Joseph. In 1921 - after the collapse of the Habsburg-Monarchy - Baron Albert Margutti publishes his memoirs. He does not only write about his service at the imperial court; but he also sketches out a personal portrait of the Emperor, making use of his own observations and impressions. His reminiscences illustrate the character of Emperor Francis Joseph. Look inside: An Elizabeth Memorial Museum" was established with nothing less than pious affection in the Royal Castle at Budapest, in which were collected a number of objects associated with the Empress. They included even the clothing, the bodice slashed by the assassin's weapon and soaked in the Empress's blood, which she had worn on the day of her death. The old Emperor satisfied himself with a single official visit to this Museum when it was opened, but he often went there when in the course of his busy day he wanted to return for half an hour to those times in which his wife had been still at his side. On these occasions he always wished to be alone. No one might disturb him in his melancholy reflections. Please note: The book was first published in 1921. Now a new edition is available with the original and unabridged text! Also available: Elizabeth. The Empress of Austria. By Alborough De Burgh. ISBN 978-1537177809
